My Great Grandma’s mom and dad were from Poland, and then eventually moved here to America. My Great Grandma had a gold, silver, and diamond-flower-shaped ring. This was one of her favorite rings and she wore it everywhere. I connect this ring to Christmas and her birthday because we would always see her on those two specific days. Sadly, after she passed away it was passed down to me. My grandma said the ring was very special to her but it also is special to my whole family because it is a way of remembrance to her. This ring is very important to me because not only was it my Great Grandma’s but I think it is very important to keep it and not lose it to show respect and show the loved one you are still thinking of them, and that they are not forgotten. This is a part of my story because now that ring is a part of me.
